The AVO Syncro Nicaragua Special Toro brings bold innovation to traditional cigar making. This box-pressed toro measures a substantial 6" x 60 with an Ecuador Connecticut wrapper that glows like polished caramel. Priced at $13.50 per stick ($270/box of 20), it's Davidoff's factory-made answer to modern smokers craving Nicaraguan complexity with Dominican refinement.
First Third: Immediate white pepper tingle fades into cashew butter and cedar plank notes. The box-press shape delivers tighter draws initially - rotate the cigar 90° every few puffs to optimize airflow.
Middle Third: Volcanic soil minerality emerges alongside dark roast coffee beans. Watch for a subtle anise seed twist around the band removal point. Smoke production doubles here - have your ashtray ready.
Final Third: Nicaraguan Ometepe tobacco takes center stage with leather and baking spices. The 60 ring gauge maintains cool combustion down to the nub despite increased nicotine presence. Retrohale carefully - cinnamon heat intensifies dramatically.
Pairing Tip: The Syncro's spice profile shines with aged rum or cold brew coffee. Avoid overly sweet drinks that mask its evolving complexity.
